» Happy Birthday iMac!

Today, ten years ago Apple released the iMac. The iMac was a direct hit and is what really sparked their computer making and got them the success computer that we still see around today. In a different style, but still pretty similar. They’ve gone from colours to clean white to an aluminium look in these ten years with loads of technical updates of course. In the above picture you see the first ever iMac and at the other side, the current version.

So, a big congratulations to Apple for making this great product and congrats to the iMac on its ten year anniversary!
